Ever feel like God is tearing down everything you thought was secure? Pastor Michael dives into Micah 1 to reveal a game-changing truth: God's not passive or distant—He's actively pursuing you with love, even when it feels like discipline.

One takeaway: Ask yourself honestly where you might be rebelling against God's ways in your life, and consider what He's inviting you to surrender. Ready to see God's pursuit in a whole new light? Hit play and let Micah's ancient wisdom speak to your modern struggles! Speaker: Michael Bayne Text: Micah 1:1-16 ESV
